      Don't be sour just because you're not included. I tell my friends about promos I know they're eligible for even though I'm not.

      Why would they? This is to entice people not using it to do so. It makes no sense for them to give existing users money, they're not getting anything out of it.

    • furythree on 27/11/2017 - 17:29

      its almost like the whole point of the promotion is to increase usage from those who dont already use it and not reward people for using it.
      different goals

  • avseqcfc on 01/11/2017 - 14:55

    Why can't I add my card to android pay ? I have a credit master card and a visa debit card but android pay says they are not compatible. I use tap and pay service of comm bank without any issue.
    My phone is Moto z force. Android 7.1
    Edit - it's working. Looks like they enabled it today because it wasn't working yesterday. Updated the android pay app and it's working now.

  • Samsungnote10 on 01/11/2017 - 14:57

    Download commbank app.
    Will use it today.

    Can't work out how to make my commbank app as default over Android pay.
    So I removed the Android pay card

    • AssociatedBaghern @ Commonwealth Bank on 01/11/2017 - 15:18

      go to connections then NFC, then tap and pay, you can change the default there

      • r0k on 01/11/2017 - 20:30

        The option is set to default pay app even if others are open. You can change that and use open the CBA app to use it.

  • [Deactivated] on 01/11/2017 - 14:58

    how do I know when was the last time I used tap and pay within CBA app? such a pain in the neck that I don't use it unless fated to.

    • RichardL on 01/11/2017 - 15:03

      Look back at your transaction record for the past 90 days. It would say "Tap and Pay xx1234" if you paid with the App.

  • noskich on 01/11/2017 - 14:59

    I've been using the app for ages, but never Tap and pay. Even now I can't find it. Can anyone please clarify where the option is? I got the Android app. Thanks.

    • RichardL on 01/11/2017 - 15:00

      Does your phone have NFC?

      • noskich on 01/11/2017 - 15:04

        Nope. Xiaomi Redmi Note 4

        • RichardL on 01/11/2017 - 15:05
          +3

          Then you can't use Tap and Pay/Android Pay, since it requires a NFC Enable Device.

        • noskich on 01/11/2017 - 15:07

          @RichardL:
          Fair enough, thanks.

          @illumination:

          Well, having in mind that I would never have used that option without this promotion (as I haven't so far), pretty good if you ask me.

  • worrierwan on 01/11/2017 - 15:03

    Is there a way to know if your transaction went through and you will receive the cash back?

    • Rambler on 01/11/2017 - 15:18

      1. Claimants, if they are a winner, will be notified via a push notification or SMS on their device.
    • bluexskies on 01/11/2017 - 15:18
      +2

      From terms and conditions: A claim will be deemed received only once the third eligible tap & pay transaction is completed.. Claimants, if they are a winner, will be notified via a push notification or SMS on their device. The winning claimants account will be credited with the cash back within ten (10) business days of the Promoter receiving their complete and valid claim.

  • worrierwan on 01/11/2017 - 15:06

    Also how long do you think this will last? I think 30,000 transactions are not that much

    • RichardL on 01/11/2017 - 15:09
      +4

      I think it will last longer then you think. Considering that the large people that uses the Commbank App and has a NFC enable device would have already used Tap and Pay within the last 90 days, so therefore not eligible for this promotion.

    • scorpweb on 01/11/2017 - 15:20

      this hasn't been widely advertised i never even knew CBA had android pay until today.

  • angelbaby on 01/11/2017 - 15:10

    I got CDIA account with CBA for many years which it comes with Eftpos card. Can I use this card on Comm App?

    • RichardL on 01/11/2017 - 15:13

      Did you have the optional CBA Direct MasterCard?

      If so, then you should be able to use the app.

      • angelbaby on 01/11/2017 - 16:50

        thanks! I am not able to use it anyway coz Transactions made via iOS Pay Tag are not eligible for this promotion.

    • bamzero on 01/11/2017 - 15:15

      Valid cards are listed in the OP

  • T-man on 01/11/2017 - 15:16

    I have their reward credit card and a debit card for the transaction account, does that mean I can claim 2x $20?

    • RichardL on 01/11/2017 - 15:18
      +2

      I'm assuming since they are different account/card you should be able to claim it once on each account.

    • bluexskies on 01/11/2017 - 16:11
      +1

      I don't think so: Only one (1) claim is permitted per person. In the event that a clamant uses multiple CommBank MasterCard debit and/or credit cards to make the eligible tap & pay transactions, their cash back will be awarded to the CommBank MasterCard debit and/or credit card that is used to make their third eligible tap & pay transaction.

  • bargainsniper on 01/11/2017 - 15:18

  • jmkprlls on 01/11/2017 - 15:22

    So I've used the Commbank app to tap & pay in the last 90 days. I'm yet to use the Android Pay app, so am I still eligible if I use the Android Pay app for my next three transactions?

    • RichardL on 01/11/2017 - 15:27
      +1

      Have not used the tap & pay function on CommBank app on Android in the 90 day period prior to the start of the Promotional Period.

      With this line in the T&C, I'm assuming you won't be eligible for the promotion even with Android Pay.

      So let me know if I've got this right.
      $1 coffee at 7-11, $2 mints at coles and woolies = $60 ?

      Nah, I think it's like this:
      $2 mints from coles -> Pay now -> Partial payment -> $0.01 -> TAP -> Partial payment -> $0.01 -> TAP -> "Pay Amount Due" -> TAP = $20.

      • forumninja on 02/11/2017 - 02:14

        You got it wrong:
        $2 mints from Coles -> Pay now -> Partial payment -> $0.01 -> TAP -> Partial payment -> $0.01 -> TAP -> Partial payment -> $0.01 -> TAP = $20

        You then use a discounted gift card to pay the balance.

    • RichardL on 01/11/2017 - 15:28

    My interpretation is that as long as you haven't used it in the last 90 days and you must link your cba mastercard or debit card. You'll get the bonus

    Doesn't matter if you've used Android pay before with different cards

  • Diji1 on 01/11/2017 - 17:37

    I have the smart access account CDIA accounts and used to have the debit cards for both accounts, but never used them so I never activated the new ones that were sent out after the originals expired and have since lost the new (unactivated) cards. If were to reorder replacement debit cards (assuming that I get the same old card numbers but with new expiry dates), would I be classed as an existing cardholder hence would I still be eligible for the offer?

  • SOBDaveo on 01/11/2017 - 19:52

      my shitty A5 from optus works with and without the case, it's wonderful for cardless payments.

  • AussieDaddy on 01/11/2017 - 20:08

    From the Conditions of Entry:

    For clarity, claimants must be one (1) of the first thirty thousand (30,000) customers to complete all three (3) eligible tap & pay transactions to receive a cash back.

    Offer is strictly limited to the first thirty thousand (30,000) valid claims received.

    So basically, there's no way to know if you're one of the first 30,000 customers who met those connections? Kinda tricky there. But again, if you have a Commbank Mastercard and you haven't used Android/Commbank App pay before or in the last 90 days, then you have nothing to lose here I guess.

      Just make sure you downloaded and set up BOTH apps, and then you can pay through any.
      Regarding terminals I suppose all that accept contactless payment via cards (i.e. Visa payWave) will work for phones.
